2. Marvel Movies In Order: Chronological Order

Onto the second of your Avengers Marvel movie lists!

The cool thing about the Marvel movies is the timeline: they bounce a bit back and forth through time.

It is one of the favorite parts of the Marvel storytelling for me, but I know it can muddy the waters for some.

If you start watching them in release order and find yourself a bit confused- or that is just not the way you think a story should work- the alternate option of watching Marvel movies in order before Avengers: Endgame is in chronological order.

Follow the actual timeline of events instead of the release dates.

Which means Captain America is up first, not Iron Man. Cap is the first Avenger, after all!

If you want to watch the Marvel movies in order of the correct historical timeline of events, this is the Marvel movie list for you.

Marvel Parent Movie Reviews

I’m a parent of 4 kids, and we all love going to the movies. Especially Marvel movies!

For the most part, I’d say that Marvel movies can be seen for most children. There is violence in all of them (um, hello, superheroes are action stars!) but typically very little sex or language to worry about.

But it’s a question I hear often: are the Marvel movies safe for kids?

When I review the Marvel movies, I always put in my parent movie reviews at the bottom of the post.

Thank you so much.. I have tried to figure out the chronilogical timeline so many times.. I’ve seen them all i just wanted to watch them in order of how things actually happen before I see this movie.. now I get to binge!! So appreciative thank u!!

Thank you so much for these lists. I just went to go see infinity war a couple weeks ago and because I made sure to watch almost every movie you referred I was able to understand everything that was going on! I’m now hooked to the marvel universe!!
